Free Webinar: Preliminary Aerodynamic Design of Centrifugal Compressors for Beginners

Join us Wednesday, May 10, 2023, at 12:00 p.m.–1:00 p.m. (U.S. Central Time).

Host: Abhay R. Patil, Ph.D.

In this webinar, a practical approach to radial expander design is provided by way of a design case. First, the conceptual sizing process based on empirical data is used to determine initial estimates of expander size and speed. Next, a preliminary design method is shown to define the rotor inlet and exit conditions. Then, it is shown how the preliminary design can be modified during one-dimensional performance calculations and off-design can be predicted. Finally, recommendations for a detailed design process are provided.
